The ballroom of Pledis Palace is charged with an air of enchantment. The time had just reached the peak of evening. Moonlight filters through the large, grand windows, bathing the open room in an ethereal glow. Along the sides of the ballroom are intricately carved golden marble columns, each one painted with a different tale of the kingdom's past.

In the middle of the ceiling sits a majestic chandelier hanging from a massive, golden chain. The piece is the crown jewel of the ballroom, one that easily draws visitors into all its glory and beauty, and it casts a radiant gleam that seemed to rain down like stardust upon the guests below.

The dance floor reflects the light from the chandelier, creating an illusion of stars twinkling at one's feet. You watch all the elegantly-dressed guests move with grace across the room. The women are all dressed with precise attention to detail, their gowns and jewelry like works of art on a canvas. Some wear dresses in shades of amethyst, emerald, and sapphire, embroidered with beautiful beadwork that glistens like constellations, while others prefer flowing gowns in delicate pastels, as if they've stepped out of a fairytale.

They all hold onto their partners𑁋lavish gentlemen dressed in sophistically tailored suits matching the colours of their ladies' gowns𑁋with utmost love and enjoyment, while you find yourself standing at the side, holding up a tray of drinks as a particular heaviness settles in your chest.

And as your eyes drift ever so slightly, you swear that regardless what direction you look in, he's always there at the end of it, like a light at the end of the tunnel. Yet the light this time was dim and lacked almost all the hope that used to be there when you looked at him.

Not only is the royal family of Pledis here, but also a second one. The Choi royal family of Pledis, and of course, the future in-laws.

Prince Choi Seungcheol is dancing with poise that appeared almost effortless, eyes locked in a tender gaze to his future betrothed, yet the smile to his face doesn't quite reach his eyes. It's the same kind of gaze during the times he would be with you, like in the secret corners of the royal garden that only the two of you knew, or in the times you both snuck out of the castle at the wee hours of the night to stargaze, or the intimate nights you spent with him in his quarters where you had to leave just before daybreak.

It's those times where the certain line between nobility and commoner could be momentarily blurred. It's those times where you both truly felt free in more ways than one.

As you continue to watch the dance and see the way he twirls his betrothed with ease, the world seems to blur, and it felt as if it was just you and Seungcheol in this grand ballroom. His eyes, so familiar yet so distant, meet yours in a fleeting moment. His face falls instantly.

The world and time may have pulled you apart, but in that stolen glance, you were brought back together. In your eyes, you saw the prince who had defied tradition and chosen to be with you without boundaries. In his eyes, he saw the commoner who had been his confidant and, more importantly, his secret love.

"Why are you just standing there? Go tend to your duties," the steward advises you annoyedly, snapping you out of your focus. With a start, you fix your posture, offering a quick nod of understanding to the stern-faced steward.

Hastily, you resume your duty, walking through the large crowd, presenting the tray of drinks and feeling their odd looks linger on you as you move past them. They're taunting you, not with words, but with their subtle, condescending glances. The weight in your chest only deepens with each step you take.

You reach the outskirts of the dance floor, casting another glance towards Seungcheol. His elegant moves and the seemingly affectionate way he held his betrothed gives a bittersweet feeling to your chest, and you can't help but briefly imagine yourself there with him instead𑁋being the one at the end of his smile, the end of his touch.

As the music swelled, the dance finally comes to an end. You watch as the prince gracefully leads his betrothed back to her seat, a warm smile on his face. You know he didn't have much of a choice. He had an obligation to the kingdom, to his family, and to the future over the love he had once whispered to you in the hidden corners of the royal gardens.

Your heart aches again, but you understand. You couldn't be a part of his world, no matter how much he cared for you.

You don't catch the way his eyes follow you once you dismiss yourself out of the ballroom, struggling to hold your tears back.

"Y/N, don't you think you overwatered this area right here?" Chan, a fellow gardener for the royal garden and closest friend, taps lightly on your shoulder, startling you out of your daze and nearly the watering can in your hands. You blink rapidly, bringing yourself back to the present.

All you manage is a weak smile, some embarrassment and guilt flooding your senses. "Sorry, I... I guess my mind was elsewhere."

He gives you a knowing look, gaze sympathetic yet encouraging. "It's okay. I know things haven't been the best recently." He gestures toward the grand castle behind you, its towers standing tall and proud. You know exactly what he's talking about, and it makes you let out a sigh, facing back towards the garden in front of you.

You've poured your heart into the royal garden for so long, finding comfort in its quiet beauty and the therapeutic rhythm of tending to its blooms from day to night.

As the sun dips below the horizon and the moon begins to rise, the garden transforms into a world of magic. The abundance of flowers surrounding you seem to glow vibrantly under the moonlight, and their scent becomes more rich in the cool night air. The air carries a gentle breeze, and the soft rustle of leaves soothes your troubled mind.

There was just something about simply being with nature𑁋in the royal garden and with the beauty that exists outside its walls𑁋that allows you to breathe more freely. Sometimes, you swear that even the flowers are capable of whispering words of their own, as if sharing stories with you alone, or stories that you used to listen to with one particular man.

Just as you're about to finish watering one last final section, you hear Chan's distant voice from afar.

"Y-Your Highness! What brings you here at this hour?"

You freeze in place, the almost-empty watering can slipping from your fingers as you turn around.

Prince Seungcheol stands at the edge of the garden, his gracious figure silhouetted against the moonlit scenery. He's dressed in his nighttime attire, a pair of simple yet elegant black trousers and a crisp white shirt that flows slightly in the cool breeze. His gaze flickers between you and Chan, a hint of curiosity in his expression, and the two of you both offer a respectful bow in his direction as he approaches.

"I just wanted some fresh air," Seungcheol answers sharply, locking his eyes with yours, and there's a small smile that graces his lips once he catches sight of you. "It's peaceful here in the garden, isn't it?"

You heart only flutters to his words, yet that arrow of sadness pierces through your chest. However, even below the auroral skies and with the intoxicating fragrance of flowers all around, your heart feels lighter than it has in a long time.

"Chan, you may excuse us for a moment." He gestures to the young boy, his voice carrying a warm, reassuring tone that you've longed to hear.

With a quick nod, Chan offers a polite bow, shooting you a glance before slipping his way back in the direction of the castle, leaving you alone with Seungcheol.

Seungcheol approaches you, the distance between you decreasing until you're standing just a breath away from each other. You both remain in a contemplative silence, neither of you wanting to break the fragile moment that has been rekindled after so long.

Finally, he speaks in a hushed tone. "You've been avoiding me."

Your gaze is quick to fall to the ground in guilt, unable to meet his eyes.

"You know I had to," You reply simply, voice barely more than a whisper. "We can't be together, Cheol. You should know this better than me. It was the only choice you had. Duty called, and you answered."

Seungcheol's face only contorts with a mix of anguish and frustration. "Duty? Duty won't keep me warm at night, Y/N. Duty won't make me feel alive. You are what my heart longs for. You should know this. This is all purely arranged, don't you remember?"

You let out an audible scoff, feeling your hands crumple into fists at your side. "You're being selfish right now. Think about the kingdom, your family, and the future you're meant to build. Don't you see why we can't... we can't be together? It's inevitable. We shouldn't..." Your find your voice drifting away, words getting caught in your throat.

He steps even closer, his frustration boiling over into desperation. "I am thinking about them. I think about them every day, but I... I can't stop thinking about you either. I can't stop loving you."

"This love won't feed the hungry, Seungcheol. This love won't protect our people. This love won't secure the kingdom's future. This love won't change the fact that I'm merely a commoner and you're a prince."

The moonlight accentuates the sadness in his eyes as your words sink in, and you find yourself unable to hold back the tears that have welled up. The two of you only stand there for a few long moments, simply gazing in each other's glassy eyes, feeling like the garden itself was holding in a breath of its own.

Then in a sudden moment of vulnerability, you step closer to him, resting your head against his chest, taking in his familiar warmth and the scent you've longed for as your tears stain his shirt. Seungcheol wraps you in his strong arms, pulling you closer, and you feel his heartbeat against your body, steady and comforting. It's a sound you've always loved listening to whenever you embraced each other.

"I've missed you, darling," he mutters quietly. "Don't you understand how much you mean to me?"

With his arms around you, you feel a warmth that fills the void in your heart. It's a sensation you've yearned for the past few torturous months.

"I-I've missed you too," You confess, voice trembling. "But... but we can't𑁋"

"Please," he pleads softly, tightening his hold around you. "Can't I just hold you?"

The tenderness his voice holds cuts you off, and you can't help the way your fingers instinctively knead at his shirt.

Seungcheol holds you tightly, as if he's afraid that letting go will make you vanish into thin air. In this fleeting moment, there's no kingdom to rule, no traditions to uphold𑁋just the two of you, reunited in an embrace that disregards the confines of your roles. It's as if the world beyond this secluded royal garden has ceased to exist, and for the first time in a long while, you feel truly alive.

"I love you," he murmurs, voice heavy with sorrow, his lips brushing against your hair. "I love you more than anything in this world."

Usually that particularly intimate exchange brings those flutters to your stomach and a giddy smile to your face, but instead, it only makes your heart throb. Though you know with every fibre in your body that it's true𑁋that you love each other. It's not a secret, nor a feeling to deny.

You find yourself pulling away slightly, angling your head up to be able to take a look at him. His gaze meets yours halfway, and the intensity in his dark pupils nearly takes your breath away. He searches your eyes for a moment, before drawing his lips near yours, his intent clear. For a heartbeat, you're tempted to give in𑁋to taste the sweetness of his kiss once more.

But then the weight of responsibility, the duty you've always known, everything, pulls you back.

"I-I can't," You whisper, the words escaping your lips shakily. "We can't, Seungcheol. It-It's not right."

Seungcheol's breath hitches as you pull away. His lips hover just inches from yours, yearning for a connection that seems increasingly unattainable.

"I know," he replies quietly, his voice barely more than a breath. He still doesn't want to let you go. "I understand. I'm sorry."

You bring a hand up to cup his cheek, caressing his skin softly. "The kingdom needs you. Your people need you. They need a strong, capable leader. They need their prince."

Seungcheol's jaw tightens. "And what about what I need? What about what my heart seeks?"

You only gaze longingly at him. The two of you know the answer to that. You don't have to say anything before he understands with a sigh. His expression softens with a mix of resignation and affection, and he takes your hand in his, bringing it to his lips to press a gentle kiss to your knuckles.

"Your Highness, your presence is requested back in the palace," Chan's voice calls out from behind, breaking the fragile moment between the two of you.

Seungcheol releases your hand defeatedly, his gaze lingering on you for a moment longer.

However, instead of backing away, he leans back in close to whisper into your ears, "Come meet me at the royal ballroom tomorrow at midnight," Then he pauses, contemplating, and adding on, "if you wish, of course."

Then his lips curl into a bittersweet smile before turning away to leave. The sound of his footsteps gradually fades as he walks away back towards the palace, leaving you standing amidst the fragrant blooms and under the rays of soft moonlight.

Come meet me at the royal ballroom... midnight... if you wish. Seungcheol's words have been echoing in your mind for the entirety of the day, sometimes even distracting you from the duties you are assigned to in the royal garden.

The more you thought over his invitation, the more it felt like an impossible temptation, knowing well of the risks and consequences it could bring.

The day passes in a blur, the sun making its daily journey across the sky, casting a warm and inviting glow over the palace and the royal garden. And when the late night finally takes over, and the clock strikes midnight, you find yourself cautiously walking down the large corridor of the palace, your feet instinctively bringing you in the direction of the royal ballroom. It's eerily quiet at this time, nothing but skeleton staff that still heightens your paranoid senses of getting caught.

Yet as you stop in front of the grand doors of the ballroom, your heart quickens its pace. You pause for a moment, taking a deep breath to steady yourself. Should you really be doing this? Was it entirely a good idea to be here?

But just the thought of simply him draws you in, your hand briefly gliding over the glistening doorknob.

With a determined sigh, you take the leap and push the heavy doors open. The ballroom lies before you, bathed in the silvery luminescence filtering through the grand windows. Your heart races as you step inside.

The ballroom is empty, deserted practically. All of the lights, including the large chandelier, were switched off, the only source coming from the outside world through the tall windows.

As you step further into the room, the sounds of your shoes echoing throughout, the sheer emptiness of the place becomes more apparent. You swear you even hear your own thoughts bouncing off the walls of the room. Doubts start to creep into your mind. What if he doesn't come? What if this was all a mistake?

However, just as you're about to give in to the feeling of hopelessness, you hear a soft sound from behind you. You turn to find Seungcheol entering the ballroom and closing the door shut. He's dressed in a simple black suit, and there's a twinge of vulnerability in his eyes that mirrors your own.

"You came," he says, and his voice is so soft that you can barely hear it over your racing heart.

You fully turn yourself to him, swallowing down a nervous lump in your throat.

"You called."

Seungcheol's eyes light up, and a faint smile crosses his lips as he steps closer to you. The moonlight bathes him in an celestial glow, accentuating his princely features. But in this moment, he's just the man you've been in love with for so long.

He extends his hand toward you, eyes locked onto yours, inviting you to share a dance with him.

"May I?" he asks gentlemanly, and it sends a rush of heat to your cheeks.

You hesitate for a brief moment, glancing down at his hand and back up to his face. "I... I don't know how..."

Seungcheol's smile remains warm and encouraging, his hand still extended toward you.

"It's okay," he says softly. "I'll teach you. Just follow my lead."

Tentatively, you place your hand in his. His grip is firm yet gentle as he guides you to the centre of the empty dance floor, a certain eager bounce in his step that you notice, and the stars painting the ground seem to come to life as you stand with him. Seungcheol places his hand on your waist, and the warmth of his palm against your skin sends shivers down your spine. You loop your arms around his neck, trying to steady your breathing as you prepare to follow his lead.

At first, your steps are awkward, but you try your best to mimic the elegance and grace that he naturally possesses. He's probably had personal training for this kind of thing, You think.

You chuckle at the small moments where your feet accidentally bump or you step on his toes, and Seungcheol's laughter mingles with yours. Nothing but a soft melody of an imagined song fills the silence as the two of you move together in the middle of the ballroom.

"You're doing great," he whispers, breath brushing against your ear as you sway together.

It's scarily easy to lose yourself in Seungcheol's eyes. They're the same eyes that once whispered secrets of love to you beneath the stars. Now they say a lot without saying anything.

You don't know how long you've been dancing, but it feels like an eternity and a fleeting moment all at once. The world outside the ballroom may be waiting, filled with your separate responsibilities and expectations, but in this moment, it's just you and him.

"Have I mentioned how beautiful you look tonight?" Seungcheol comments, even though you were only dressed in your servant uniform.

Your cheeks flush at his compliment, feeling a bit self-conscious under his gaze, and offer a shy smile. "I'm not as stunning as the ladies at the court, nor your betrothed."

Seungcheol gently tilts your chin upward, making sure you meet his eyes.

"Every time I look at you, I feel like I fall in love all over again." His thumb brushes lightly against your cheek. "Every time I watch you down tending to the garden through my quarters, I feel as if you're tending to my heart. I can simply say that you're the most beautiful person I've ever laid my eyes on, sweetheart."

His words make your heart swell out of your chest, his grip on your waist tightening imperceptibly, drawing you closer to him. The space between you vanishes, and you can feel the heat of his body seeping through the layers of fabric that separate you. Seungcheol could shower you with praises all day long, and you would never tire of hearing them. He has a way of making you feel special, cherished, and utterly adored.

"Cheol?" You call out, voice tinged with vulnerability.

He raises an eyebrow, still guiding you through the dance. "Yes, love?"

"Are we crazy for doing this?" You ask. It's meant to be rhetorical in a way, but the uncertainty in your voice lingers, and Seungcheol's expression becomes more serious.

He slows the movement between you two, his pensive eyes locked onto yours.

"Perhaps we are," he admits wholeheartedly. "but I'd rather be crazy with you than live a life without you."

His words quietly suspend in the air around you. The moments pass, but they feel eternal, as if time itself has momentarily paused to let the two of you be together. You're captured in his eyes, just like he is with yours. You see the emotions he's trying to convey: love, longing, and the knowledge that this moment is both a blessing and a curse.

And then without a word, you both lean in at the same time, lips meeting each other's in a kiss both softly and tenderly. It's a stolen moment; it's a secret scene that only the moon and stars witness.

His arms pull you closer, fingers dancing along your spine, as if he's trying to bridge any space that might exist between you. It's a kiss that tastes of bittersweet nostalgia𑁋something of what once was and what could never be. You savour the taste of him on your lips, knowing that once the morning light arrives, this moment may become nothing more than a distant memory.

As your lips break away, you both draw back slightly, foreheads touching, breathing heavily as you savour the precious seconds of closeness.

"You know that I'd give up everything for you," he whispers, breath warm against your skin.

You only smile, tracing your fingers gently over his lips. He leans into your touch.

"I know," You say softly. "And I would do the same for you."

"But just for tonight." He pushes back some strands of hair behind your ear. "Can we pretend that the world doesn't matter?"

You peer into his eyes, and for a moment, you see a reflection of your own pining. Your heart sinks, but it also rises. A smile drifts across your face, but it also carries a trace of sadness. Leaning in, you nearly press your lips against his once again, but then you take in a deep breath.

"Yes," is all you mutter. "I'm all yours."

That's all it takes for him to kiss you again, a bit more fervently and urgently that it nearly makes you stumble in surprise. But the second you pull back from each other, he's grabbing your hand in his, a bright smile to his face, before twirling you around and pulling you in close once more, your laughter echoing in the empty ballroom together. You share one more kiss, and then another, and another, whispers of hushed I love you's against each other’s lips as the night goes on like it will never end.

And it's with each minute that passes that only strengthens Seungcheol's determination𑁋that in some way, he will make sure you both will be together, whether that means escaping the constraints of your worlds, finding a way to keep your love alive in secret, or even sacrificing a part of himself.

With each kiss, he silently promises you that he will find a way. With each kiss, you silently promise to love and wait for him.

hi hi hi hi I found out about Hal Jordan TODAY and am going so autistic over him it’s insane can you please give me a rundown on what his deal is I think you’re the Tumblr Green Lantern guy

omg hi, insane compliment btw, tysm! i'm glad to give you a rundown!! also definitely check out @katmaatui for more hal info, red is SUPER knowledgable abt him. @rillette, @catboyollie, @halcarols, @starsapphire and @yellowcorps (along with so many others that i cant think to tag off the top of my head) have some great hal takes too! (edited the post just to tag more ppl)

apologies if this is a bit rushed/messy, i'm doing this while i smelt stone in minecraft LMAO

that being said... i think this will be a long one, so more below the cut :3

(cw for light mentions of pedophilia, abuse, canon typical violence)

okay, so hal jordan is the first human green lantern of the GREEN LANTERN CORPS. it's important to note that there was technically a human green lantern before him (alan scott, originally from earth two/the justice society, but integrated into main DC canon after crisis), but his power comes from a different source- which is a whole different ballpark that would take ages to explain, lol, so i'll move on from that.

hal was originally introduced in a showcase issue in 1959, but ended up getting a solo run in the mid 60s because of his showcase issues doing well. he's been a test pilot, middle brother, compassionate, rule follower (although being surprisingly liberal for the time) with an interesting relationship with star sapphire carol ferris since those first appearances. for the first 20 odd years of his appearances we had no information on his parents, but we got a lot from other family members, such as uncle titus, cousin hal jr (aka airwave), younger brother jim jordan and older brother jack jordan. through the 60s and 70s those members of his family were developed along with him; with the audience learning that jim's wife sue thought jim was green lantern, rather than hal, and hal himself training his cousin, hal jr.

the most known version of how hal got the ring in the first place is probably based off of geoff john's rewrite in the mid 00s, reiterating the original story of abin sur crashing onto earth and dying, leaving hal with his ring to be trained by sinestro and the rest of the glc, while also changing miniscule details that had been developed in emerald dawn 1 & 2 (which was released in the 90s, more on that later). the main premise of abin sur's crash has stayed the same, but the story around hal's current life, job, family and stability keep changing. for instance, the original comic with abin sur in showcase only showed hal getting the ring, the guardians choosing him. the first rewrite i can think of was emerald dawn volume 1, published in 1989 and continued in emerald dawn v2 (1991). here we get the classic hal watches his father die in a plane crash with carol ferris beside him as a pre adolescent, and some of the biggest implications of the mistreatment from his father. we also get introduced to hal, despite his stick to the rules, straight edge attitude, making some serious mistakes and putting people in danger and even death- with the implication of alcohol abuse. the audience HAS known hal used to be in the air force since sometime in the late 60s or early 70s (sorry, i don't remember the exact issue!), but emerald dawn shows us that hal's moved on from the air force and into test piloting, and that his mother keeps having to bail him out for making mistakes. emerald dawn vol 1 shows the abin sur moment, followed by fights that cost hal's friends life, and is followed up by sinestro training hal in emerald dawn vol 2, where we get to see the iconic scenes of hal finding out about sinestro and his... dictatorship.

along with that; how the guardians and rings are treated and hal and the glc's perception of them is vastly changed over time. in the early days of gl in the 60s, the guardians were really never to be seen. hal was repeatedly summoned to them and then had his memory almost fully wiped- only leaving a vague notion of his orders. the guardian's called hal to them at seemingly the worst times, ending up with him almost getting injured, getting in trouble at work, and even ending up jobless and homeless. the chaos of being a green lantern has been around the WHOLE time, but originally, the green lanterns didnt really... fight it. the guardian's were their masters (and even father figures, to hal) and not to be questioned. the rings in the 60s were also much more powerful, despite the yellow weakness (the yellow weakness is the notion that from about the 60s to the mid 90s the green lantern rings were completely unable to be used against anything yellow). time travel, phasing, teleporting, etc were all very viable and common things- as well as forceful shapeshifting, invisibility, mind control, mind reading, etc etc. these days, writers have dampened these powers down to mostly shooting light and constructs.

okay, it's parallax time. the emerald twilight arc from the mid 90s wasn't an arc that was as thoroughly planned out over a long period of time as it probably should have been. a lot of fans at the time (and even now) hated what happened there, and claimed it ruined hal's character entirely. i can understand why! but, at it's core, the parallax arc is a story about a broken man pushed to the limit, fully grieving his home and family (originally, he lost his brother jim in the destruction of coast city, along with a lot of other family members) and being goddamn fed up with how his "masters" treated him and the rest of the corps. the so called "perfect lantern" (no, he wasn't that much of a rebel, despite what johns wants you to think) snapped and essentially tried to gain as much power as he could to bring back coast city. when the guardians stripped him of his powers so he couldn't, hal became enraged and took down every lantern in his path, just to get to the guardians and that power. long story short, he kills the guardians and absorbs all the energy from the central power battery on oa, becoming parallax- essentially a god. this marks the start of zero hour, an event made by dc to restructure and reset; giving the comics a new generation of heroes. hal destroys the world and remakes it, but is ultimately taken down by kyle rayner, the new green lantern, with the help of the jla, jsa and associates. there are a few more run ins with parallax after this, before kyle convinces parallax/hal that he can make up for all of this by reigniting the sun after it went out- aka killing himself. hal does it, is stuck in limbo for awhile and then becomes the spectre to continue to make up for the horrible things he did as parallax. the spectre is the spirit of god's wrath and vengeance, a weapon used to drag sinners to their very own, self made hells, and scare the shit out of people. the spectre, from it's very first appearance, is a ghost like spirit that takes on a host, and is primarily described using christian terms and is used in a very... christian ideology. HOWEVER, the spectre 2001 confirms that hal is jewish (jewish mom, catholic dad) and that belief system, plus his personality as a whole, literally makes him change the spirit of vengeance into the spirit of redemption, for at least as long as they are bonded. the whole parallax to spectre arc is about grief, pain, cycles of abuse and terror, redemption and guilt. it is NOT about a fear bug that possess hal. (im so serious though, the spectre 2001 is one of the best comics ive ever read. amazing. changed my world view) but... geoff johns changed all of it, decanonized the spectre, and ruined the legacy of parallax and hal's growth as a person by releasing green lantern: rebirth in 2004/2005. this retcons hal's breakdown and journey through grief into him BEING POSSESSED BY AN ENTITY CONTROLLED BY SINESTRO THAT FULLY CHANGES PREVIOUS GREEN LANTERN CANON AND IMPLICATIONS. also, fucks up the importance of kyle becoming ion, but whatever. geoff johns writes hal (and even more so, carol) so very wrong, and change their stories so vastly in ways that go against the stories very meanings.

SIGH.

now... time to get started on some rougher stuff. hal jordan misconceptions. i'm saving that arc for last.

- hal jordan wasn't much of a rule breaker or rebel until the 70s/80s, where he BEGAN (very slowly, mind you) to be radicalized by oliver queen during denny o'neil's green lantern/green arrow. hal was painted as more of a conservative during this period (which, admittedly, kind of goes against previous canon... he's always been relatively central to liberal, not to any extremes like ollie though, lol) but gets more and more understanding of how power structures work and how lower classes are mistreated during this time- which ends up opening his eyes a bit to how shitty the guardians are. (this is helped by the guardians literally just. leaving. the green lanterns and kind of disbanding them so they can go fuck the zamarons, lmao). geoff johns tried to change this narrative into making hal a very... maverick-from-top-gun type of character, who punched his way out of the military (when, in reality, the original story during emerald knights in the late 90s was that hal had been framed for stealing a jet and was dishonorably discharged, which he took the punishment for because he knew someone had to) and hits on women constantly and gets ladies and allat (which, funnily enough hal was awful at getting carol to like him for a long time, since carol fell for green lantern rather than hal. not to mention the awkwardness of carol's proposals or hal's many, many failed relationships). hal has always been insecure and lowkey boyfailure, he is NOT a top gun maverick tom cruise sorta guy! fuck you jeremy adams!

- hes not that much of an idiot asshole. hal can be a real dick, he's had that going for him since the beginning, but he isn't what you read in batfam fics. he's not stupid and shouldn't be the laughingstock of the justice league. i assume this idea started from the obsession with batfam and the fact that the jla has quite the history of ignoring hal and his issues (as well as. all of their issues. theyre not so great at work life balance), but it's gone too far. hal isn't making fun of the robins and pissing bruce off bc of that. hal isnt fooling around on the job 24/7 (he takes being a gl and pilot VERY seriously, although he does enjoy some danger and high stakes) or slacking off to get girls. again. not top gun maverick.

- hal has not been a creep since the beginnings. hal was not weird with carol in the 60s. things were weird between them, yeah, but that's based off circumstance and the craziness of star sapphire and green lantern. he was NOT being horribly sleazy! i hate that i even need to say this, but i see this take too much not to

- going off of what was said above, lets discuss the arisia arc. if you want to be a real hal fan, this is unfortunately something you need to know about. in action comics, after crisis and the guardians left to go fuck the zamarons, most of the green lanterns fell apart and seperated. a small group went to earth- led by hal and consisting of hal, john stewart, katma tui, kilowog, salaakk, ch'p and arisia rrab. (also sometimes guy gardner, but that's complicated) previously to this arc, hal treated 14 year old arisia like a beloved little sister, welcoming her and leading her into the corps just like everyone else. things started to change once the timeline gets closer and closer to crisis, where arisia starts showing that she has a crush on hal (who is roughly 30s at this point). any advances made by arisia are shut down by hal at the beginning, because she's a child. now, it's unfortunately a common thing to just call hal a "pedophile" because of what happens in this arc- but it really isn't that simple. still weird and icky, but definitely not to the degree of which some fans like to act like it is- esp to attack hal fans for, which is... an odd choice regarding how many fucked up things every character (esp male characters) did back in the day. arisia ends up using her power ring to artifically age herself up, making her body AND MIND into that of a young adult (the comic makes this very clear). once this happens... hal stops rejecting her. they get together, they kiss. the only person in the group of green latnerns who actually has an issue with it is john (salaakk is meh about it, but he just doesn't like human-esque romance no matter what), and katma even directly encourages their relationship. kilowog ends up crushing on arisia as well, and guy gardner hits on her repeatedly throughout the whole period. eventually, hal and arisia break up, but this legacy (thank so much englehart, for wrtiting this. /sarc) is a big controversy among the comics crowd. "is hal jordan a predator?" personally, and i know a lot of friends/mutuals/other gl fans choose to erase the arisia arc entirely (versus how canon ended up retconning it to be 14 earth years is equal to that of an adult and she didn't really get super ages up, or whatever) and go with the familial relationship between hal and her. that's my preferred version! i know red (@katmaatui) has explored that version as well as an alternate version where the arisia arc did happen, and how it affects arisia in particular, which is really depressing but super interesting. anyway, it's complicated and weird and nuanced, but that whole occurence doesn't mean hal's a bad character or person (cause yk. retcons) and it's certainly not bad to like his character. (definitely ignore any guy gardner fans who try to bitch about this arc. cough cough. guy was ALSO into her and hit on her repeatedly. smfh) most people who bring this up to demonize fans didn't even read the arc, and don't know the nuance or the other weird shit that happens in it. (hal is not a horse, sigh)

OVERALL NOTES!

hal jordan is a super complicated character with an extensive history spanning from the 60s to his worse written appearances in modern age. it's okay to like any version of the character, but it is important to note the changes that have been made, the storylines butchered and lost, and more. he has quite the legacy, and he's particularly interesting as from a moral standpoint. hal's a real sweetie though, when it gets down to it! he's neurodivergent coded (imo at least.. his dad very much gets onto him for being disrtracted, hes kinda shit at social interaction (and then amazing at it the other half of the time) etc etc. "spacecase") and his dad is an abusive asshole, who he desperately doesnt want to be like but thinks he NEEDS to be like!

[selkie-on-land]

In season 1 of Justice League, there is an episode called "Fury". This could have been a great episode, if the subject matter wasn't just so misogynistic.

In this episode, Aresia, an Amazon, creates a virus that only affects men. In doing so, it highlights all the incredible women who does the same job and better as them but who are invisible because they are women.

Obviously they make Aresia, crazy, hysterical, the super villain of the episode to be destroyed at all costs.

''mope, mope, a woman is a misandrist so she will destroy the entire humanity'' when in all the galaxies (on absolutely all the planets in all the episodes) the problem is indeed the behavior of men and males and that the only societies that function are those of women exclusively. It was cool to have Amazons, until I realized that they only serve to demonize and dehumanize women who obviously have the nerve to recognize the patriarchy. And it wasn't even the entire humanity, just men.

Usually, we have Wonder Woman (Diana) who warns women against men, protects them when they engage in sexual harassment, street harassment, coercion, manipulation, etc. She's also a critical of make up, marital life, marriage, having relationships with men etc. An icon. And there, the whole moral of the story of the episode is to say ''not all men''.

This is really the moral of the story, because the plot's end of the episode is the Queen of the Amazons (Hyppolyta) who tells Aresia that ONE day in ALL the history of humanity, ONE man saved her. He saved her from violent men, who transformed women into sex slaves, before that, she was already a survivor of the war of men who had genocided her villages, some rapes against women too, etc. JUST MEN KILLING AND MASS RAPING.

But since ONLY ONE, ONE DAY, apparently did just ONE good deed, which let's face it, is NORMAL behavior!!!

Not good, not bad, NORMAL. The bare minimum.

This makes him the hero and her the villain.

The Amazons live among women, no man is allowed to set foot on the land of Themyscira, by law. They have observed men from afar, sometimes forced up close, they are feminist and realistic when it comes to the situation of the evolution of our planet and the place of men and patriarchy in the responsibility for these developments.

Knowing this, and worse, saying it openly to other women, protecting them from men, makes them BAD. But not in the sense of not nice but inhumane, horrible and VILE.

This is one of the rare episodes we get to see other Amazons who are BADASS WARRIORS GODDESSES but it turned them into sick unrealistic villains.

When they are the most realistic on the entire show. They are marking FACTS.

I am so proud of them but I HATE with all my heart how they did them dirty for daring to say the truth about men.

AND Aresia is fully clothed, not hanging around, saving the world from men in a underwear but clothed, less sexualised then Diana.

Aresia can wear flat shoes, a full clothes costume but she's the villain.

While Diana is in underwear and heels.

I also noticed that she has 2 allied, one with a full practical clothes, and another one in underwear too. One with short hair and the other with long hair.

Guess who betrayed her for men and her not all men speech? And who stayed with her?

I don't remember if the betrayal of Star Sapphire (in the middle) was part of Aresia's plans tho but that's not my point.

Anyway HAIL ARESIA 👑 !! 🛐

Long live Aresia in our hearts!

May her wisdom guides us in this man's world!

She showed us the ways. 🛐

Germany 1959

The ballroom was set, with streamers, punch, food, musical guests, and soldiers scattered around with beautiful frauleins on their arms. Whether they were the girls they left at home was the real question. Standing in the corner spectating was Elvis, who had a plate in one hand and a punch glass in the other. He was in his formal uniform, and his iconic pompadour was slick and neat. But something still felt incomplete. Sure, he had danced with almost every young woman who had arrived, but his mind kept wandering to the one in Memphis. 

"Private Presley, have you met Nancy?"

"Nice to meet ya." He kissed her hand as one of his fellow soldiers walked over,

"Pleasures all mine." The young woman blushed, "I'll go get us some punch." Standing in front of Elvis was a cadet who he'd talk to now and then when he refused to sleep due to his reoccurring nightmares.

"Say, what's a guy like you doing alone? I mean, you're Elvis Presley."

"That may be true, kid." He laughed, "But, uh, got a girl back who I promised to be true to." 

"What's she like?"

"Well, she's an..."

" A what..."

The doors had opened, and the chandeliers had begun to pick up on the sparkling of a sapphire necklace. Soldiers had lined up to take a glance. An army blue strapless mermaid gown hugged every curve of her body. This woman was something like a movie star, well she was, as well as a singer, and a guitar player as well, most importantly she was. 

"Ms. Valmos, you look stunning." One man said as he grabbed her gloved hand and kissed us, "Will you be gracing us with a song tonight?" Cecelia blushed at the kiss on her hand, 

"I'm afraid not. I was just in Paris earlier for a concert," she responded, reaching for a glass of lemonade from one of the serving trays. 

"Excuse me, Presley, for cutting our conversation short,"

"None taken." Elvis smiled. He had wandered a bit about the commotion. But he also wanted to bask in alone time in the corner again. Meanwhile, the dance floor was covered in a battalion of men and women waltzing. One was Cecelia, who had been keeping up with the tempo.

"So tell me, Ms. Valmos, have you come with a lucky guy?"

"No, but I was hoping to run into one." Cecelia joked, though she was serious. She planned to bump into A certain someone whose pillow she'd been hugging and crying on.

"Then I may have the perfect Rebel without a cause waiting for you." The cadet said as Cecelia giggled to herself, "Perhaps I'll introduce you."

"Oh, please do."

"And then I said that ain't how you load a gun properly-"

"Hey, private Presley..." 

"Yes, sir?" Elvis turned around, his heart pounding out of his chest, his eyes looking Cecelia up and down. He couldn't believe she was here and in front of him, looking as gorgeous as Lena Horne. 

"Have you met Ms. Valmos?"

"You mean my Fiancé ?"

"Funny, I don't remember a ring, Mr. Presley." Cecelia chuckled as she extended her hand, a pink garnet and diamond cluster ring on her finger. Elvis pulled her by his side and took a deep breath of his scent, dizzy and love drunk from it already. 

"I missed you too, honey." He laughed at her joke as his hand snaked around her waist and squeezed it. 

"Behave~" she whispered.

"Make me." His breath was hot against her ear and neck as she tried not to shiver at his suggestive tone of voice. 

"How about a dance?"

"Could think of another kind of dance." He teased as she blushed. 

"Elvis!" Cecelia chuckled, taking his hand, "If you'll excuse us, Cadet Johnson." she smiled, leading Elvis to the ballroom floor, 

"You were thinking it too, doll. And you know it."

"I was not!" she blushed, looking at him in his uniform as she bit her red lipstick-painted lips. Her mind had wondered what he'd look like bending her over in that outfit, with the hat on. Oh, how he'd drop and give her twenty. Their bodies were pressed together as they were Waltzing, 

"I missed you, Cece."

"I missed you too, El." She looked up at him, their eyes locked. Anyone passing by could see they were in love. As Elvis dipped her, she could feel the heat between her legs grow hotter than the blush on her cheeks,

 "Practing for our wedding, I see." Cecelia laughed as his heart fluttered. He couldn't wait to finish his two years, for he had a beautiful bride waiting for him in Memphis. Well, when she wasn't recording music. Or touring, or doing a movie, or a radio interview. 

"I have been." he then spun her into him. 

"How romantic," She blushed, her back against him as his cologne tingled her senses along with the suit, 

"You okay, baby?"

"Mhmm. I need some air."

"Need me to come with you?"

"In me would be better." She mumbled,

"What was that."

"Anywhere with me would be better." She lied as Elvis laughed. Upstairs, there was a balcony with a beautiful view of the stars and Germany, a nice breeze blowing, and a romantic scene one would've seen in the movies, 

Cecelia's hand had brushed Elvis's as he looked down at the 5"3' woman before him. Scooping her into his arms, he began leading her into a kiss full of want and need, love and lust, but one that felt like everything letters couldn't say. 

"Baby, I need you now..."

"Elvis..."

"No one's gonna see us, and I know you want me too." kissing her neck as she felt his cock through his uniform. It was as if he could smell her pheromones in the air. 

"Elvis~" His plump lips kissed lower as her hands caressed his chest, 

"Yes, Cece..."

"Take me..." And in a flash, the zipper of her dress was down, and his pants were down to his ankles along with his boxers. 

"Mind if I keep these..." Ripping off her panties as he put them in his suit pocket, the cold wind blowing a breeze between her wet folds,

 "Keep 'em." She bit her lip. 

"Will do..." Sliding his fingers between her lips, he could tell she was ready for him. Positioning her in doggy. He was ready to have his beautiful fiance, who he missed so long, the woman who satisfied him, his one and only "Cecelia~ Fuck, you're dripping for me." biting her lip she could feel the stretch of his cock entering her, it had been awhile since the last time she'd been intimate with him. 

"E-Elvis!"

"I know, breathe." He mentioned, his pace was slow as he heard her whimpers. Her grip was loosely holdin onto the railing as he kissed her back, 

"You take me so well you know that."

"Mhmm..."

"Mhmm, what..."

"Sir~" Cecelia moaned bouncing back to his pacing, he was slowly brushing up against her G-spot, 

"That's my..mmm. Girl," He moaned into her ear as she bit her lip trying to stay quiet,

 "Faster!" 

"Hold on tight." Ramming into her, Cecelia felt his fingers rubbing on her clit as she began to shiver, her legs were giving out and her orgasm was underway, she could feel him buried deep in her belly and she didn't want him to stop at all. 

"Cece I-" All she heard were grunts and groans as she felt a warmth from inside her, she tried her best not to be so loud, but when it came to Elvis she couldn't help but scream his name and crumble.

"ELVIS!" 

Pulling out of her, he had helped her up as she kissed him, 

"I love you."

"I love you too, now let's say we get out of here and finish what we started."

The gems of Cyan Diamond’s court, or rather, her entourage and friends.

———————

Kyanite

Cyan Diamond’s closest advisor

A high ranking gem, Kyanite uses her status to help advise her Diamond on the ever changing state of Paragon and it’s empire. She ranks above the Cyan Court Garnets and Agates, as well as it’s Sapphire. She takes all of their opinions and knowledge into account before delivering reports and advise.

Kyanite is a very intelligent gem, knowledgeable on gem culture and politics. She is often the one to handle smaller matters throughout the court. Snowfall Sapphire and Enhydro Agate often report smaller issues to her. She manages Cyan’s garnets as well, making sure they are fit to defend Paragon against any threat.

Personally, Kyanite is a kindhearted gem, though is protective and loyal to her Diamond to an extreme degree. Infact, it was Kyanite who saved Cyan Diamond and her Pearl from a band of rebel assassins.

Deep Sea Pearl

This is Cyan Diamond’s Pearl, often nicknamed “Sea” to differentiate her from others. She holds the role of being her Diamond’s personal attendant, Secretary and confidant, tailoring to Cyan’s every need.

Outwardly Sea seems very shy and quiet, though getting to know her would reveal a gem who takes delight in seemingly silly, meaningless things. She loves to watch sunrises and to observe the stars, and has a small interest in sculpting and creating art. However, Sea is sure to keep her small hobbies away from prying eyes, not wanting to be seen as “too airheaded” to be a Diamond’s Pearl.

Silently she does wish for more, wanting to help her Diamond with her growing duties. However, with the addition of an Angel Aura Quartz to Cyan Diamond’s permanent following, Sea has grown an interest in fighting to defend her Diamond as well.

Snowfall Sapphire

Cyan Diamond’s first and only Sapphire, Snowfall was a gift from Black Diamond from when Cyan’s court was first taking form 9,000 years ago. Snowfall is the only Sapphire to reside within Cyan’s section of Paragon, and is also the only sapphire in Cyan’s entourage.

Sapphires on Paragon are an enigma in general, most only being present in Black Diamond’s court to assist with interpreting her visions. Of those Black gives to her fellow Diamonds, they are usually specially designed to match their courts with slightly weaker future vision, so the Diamonds still depend on Black.

However, Snowfall managed to slip through Black’s rigorous gifting standards, her vision being just as powerful as a standard sapphire’s. Too focused on her own ambitions, Black has not yet noticed her mistake of granting Cyan such a powerful Sapphire.

Seen as a sort of “fashion icon” in Cyan’s court, many aristocrats within aspire to be like Snow in her coolheaded manner. She is the main representative of the aristocrats within the court, reporting their needs and grievances to Kyanite who decides whether or not it should be an issue brought before Cyan Diamond. She also acts as an advisor to her Diamond when needed.

Angel Aura Quartz

This particular Angel Aura Quartz is an exceptionally made gem, being taller and stronger than the others in her Facet. After a rebel attack against Cyan Diamond and her Pearl, Angel was assigned to be her Diamond’s body guard, while the rest of her cut became extra bodyguards when needed, and guard Cyan Diamond’s palace and personal ship.

Angel is Stoic and rigid out of fear, afraid that stepping out of line would mean the punishment of others in her cut. She views them as siblings, and would do anything for them. This being said, she is incredibly dedicated to her work, refusing to take breaks even for her own sanity.

Recently, Angel and Cyan Diamond’s Pearl have grown a small bond of sorts, both sharing sentiments in how dedicated to their roles they each are. They are also always at their Diamond’s side, only adding to their growing friendship.

Enhydro Agate

Cyan Diamond’s top Agate, and security advisor. While Cyan’s court agates mostly consist of Holly Blue, Blue Lace, and standard Blue Agates, Enhydro is a rare and unique variant. She mostly sees to managing the lowest ranking gems in Cyan’s Palace, as well as other Agates within the court as a whole.

Enhydro is often gossiped about by the other Agates, who are jealous of her close standing with their Diamond. This has made Enhydro paranoid and insecure, wanting to appear “perfect” to everyone on Paragon.

She is also the overseer of Cyan Diamond’s personal cut of Angel Aura Quartzes.

Someone™️ on amino mentioned Bel to me out of the blue and like, I realized I should’ve gave him a bit of a redesign/touch up, especially now that we know anti depressants and sleeping pills and stuff like that come from the sloth ring

I know the eye bleed pink was iconic but ……… fuck I don’t have any reasons fjksjfkskgk

But blue accent colors………………

Overlayed a funky pink, idk which one I like more
